How often are fathers first name used as last names (pavlov)? or are they usually the patronymic name?
I plan on getting a name change. I've never really been close to my family and I want something I'd feel more comfortable with. I was thinking of going halfway, my last name is King and the closet thing I could find was Korolev (korol).
And are there rules on endings? like ovsky, evsky? ovich?
ovich is ukranian? same with enko?
Could it be Korolovich, Korolevsky?
Sorry if im wrong, I just started reading about this yesterday. I find it interesting, different than western names.
